Anton Lundell (born 3 October 2001) is a Finnish professional ice hockey player who is a centre for the Florida Panthers of the National Hockey League (NHL). Lundell was considered a top prospect for the 2020 NHL entry draft, where he was selected 12th overall by the Panthers. Lundell won back-to-back Stanley Cups with the Panthers in 2024 and 2025.

Playing career

Lundell first played as a youth as a 14-year old at the U16 level within the junior program of HIFK. Continuing his development through his fourth season with the club, Lundell made his professional debut registering nine goals and 19 points in 38 games during the 2018–19 Liiga season. Showing potential as a prominent two-way forward, Lundell followed up his rookie season by improving his offensive totals with 10 goals and 28 points in 44 regular season games before the 2019–20 season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

On 7 June 2021, Lundell signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Florida Panthers. Lundell made his NHL debut on 14 October 2021, in Florida's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins. On 19 October 2021, Lundell scored his first NHL goal, against Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy in a 4–1 Panthers win. On 31 January 2022, Lundell recorded his first multi-point NHL game (five assists) in the Panthers' 8–4 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. He was named the NHL Rookie of the Month for January 2022 after recording 17 points in 15 games.

In the 2023–24 season, Lundell reached the Stanley Cup Final with the Panthers for the second straight year, defeating the Edmonton Oilers in seven games and earning him a first career Stanley Cup championship. A week after winning the Stanley Cup, Lundell signed a six-year, $30 million contract extension with the Panthers. In the 2024–25 season, Lundell and the Panthers would eventually clinch a third consecutive Stanley Cup Final trip and repeat as Stanley Cup champions for a second consecutive year, once again beating the Oilers in the Final in six games.
